Prince George’s County Fire/EMS Department Hazardous
Materials Technicians participate in sampling training conducted by the
Department of Homeland Security Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction
Office. PGFD and DHS operate a novel collaborative agreement which helps
to build local capacity to respond to high threat incidents. PGFD
operates a fulltime Hazardous Materials Response Program that has multiple
capabilities to respond to a myriad of event types. Building
relationships during training events such as this maximizes efficiency and
effectiveness during response to emergency situations. Assistant Chief
Marino stated, “we are grateful to our federal partners for providing this
opportunity. We look forward to continue to leverage these opportunities
to share our resources and maximize the safety of the citizens and residents of
Prince George’s County.”

Tragically firefighters will find pets that have been injured in home fires. Sometimes owners are not availiable to bring their pet to a emergency vet or may not have the resources to afford medical care. The Prince George's County Fire/EMS Department and the Anne Arundel County SPCA have teamed up and created a fund whereas medical care for the pet would be covered in part or in full.
